I frequently need to do some basic calculations. [...] Is there a way to do calculations with doubles instead of integers without piping to an external program like bc and then inserting into a buffer?
If you are lucky enough to have a Python-enabled Vim, you may use: :py print 3.7 * 4.5 and read the result (16.65) in the echo area. -- François Pinard http://pinard.progiciels-bpi.ca
